Hi All,

Here is simple how-to for GNU FreeIPMI on Tyan S2882/S2881.

For Tyan S2881 system with SMDC card
=====================================
1. Get all files (firmware, flash utility and run.bat) from
     ftp://ftp.californiadigital.com/pub/amd64-ipmi/S2881
   and copy to a (FAT formatted) floppy disk

2. Reboot the machine with FreeDOS or compatible OS.

3. Insert floppy disk containing S2881 files and run
   run.bat

4. After successful firmware flashing, reboot the machine and use GNU
FreeIPMI normally.

=====================================
  Tyan S2882 Motherboard is having CPU thermal issues in 1U boxes because
of CPU#2 is away from blowers.  We recommend to use Tyan S2881
motherboard in 1U chassis.


Feel free to contact me if you have problem with this how-to.


Thanks,

Best Regards
Bala
